Toilet Etiquette

LaszloPanaflex [Edit] [Delete] 34 replies 12:10, 22 October '14

In light of yesterday's thread I was wondering if you would divulge if you close the lid on the toilet after doing a massively stinky shit? As in an attempt to contain at least some of the stench.

  • I always leave it up

    so anyone coming along after me doesn't have to go through the anxiety of opening the lid, unsure of what might be in there.

    Side note: always like seeing the expressions of two people (when I'm not one of them) passing each other, one coming out of, the other going into a cubicle.

    All my excrement smells lovely though, like rose water or something.

    • I have been advised to close the lid but it seems a bit bolting the stable door

      LaszloPanaflex @foppyish | 22 Oct '14, 12:15 | X
      • "wouldn't go in there for a bit

        it was absolute MARE!?!?!?!?!"

      • I always close it during the flush, then open it

        when i studied toilet studies, that's what they told us to do.

        Also, it's a shame I missed the "an" in that above post.

        foppyish @LaszloPanaflex | 22 Oct '14, 12:17 | X
        • I assumed the missing an was an NI thing

          • thanks for giving me the benefit of the doubt

  • never really got the point of the lid

    seems like an afterthought. Seems like somebody's trying to kid on that you can put a plastic cover over a toilet and its becomes a fucking chair. Seems like some fucking cunt is trying to make a fool of me, absolutely not having it, fuck off.

    • I sit on the lid

      when I am bathing my child in the bath next to it. Sitting clothed on the seat would just seem weird. Otherwise nah.

    • Stops things falling in, dropped toothbrushes and the like.

      That's what I've always thought.

      • Oh yeah come to think of it

        the lid has saved me some embarrassment and wet fingers when I've been juggling my faberge eggs in the bathroom and fumbled a bit... NOT!

        Work on your brushing technique mate.

        yes_ @The_Excession | 22 Oct '14, 12:24 | X
        • Alright Safehands McGee

          Only actually dropped my keys in the bog, but it was very annoying. Briefly.

  • SOMEBODY in my office

    Seems to think putting the lid down is better than, or a replacement for, cleaning the pan when they're finished. They can't have failed to see the gigantic shit-streaks they left, but just chose to hide it away for the next person to discover.

    I can't comment on whether it contained the stench, so this probably isn't any use to you. I feel a bit better though, so there's that.

  • Our 5 year old keeps sleepwalking into the bathroom and pissing all

    over the lid, presumably he is dreaming that it's open. For this reason I have special dispensation to leave the toilet fully open over night.

    He's pretty cute when he's sleepwalking though.

  • hate it when the seat has

    hairs and fluff at the back point where the cheeks meet, near the edge.

    ma0sm | 22 Oct '14, 12:25 | X
    • Really?

      I fucking love it!

      LaszloPanaflex @ma0sm | 22 Oct '14, 12:27 | X
      • ah who am I kidding

        I drop to my knees and lick up the fluffy treats every time

  • Similar to this subject...how much airfreshner is too much?

    The men in my office think that using at least half a can of airfreshner is the answer to masking their deployment of a chocolate gateau. Not only does it make things worse - as for some reason airfreshner seems to keep the smell in the air for longer, mixed with a sickly sweet floral aeroma, but you get the delightful additional acidic aftertaste/smell in the back of your mouth and clings to your hair and clothes like shit to a toilet bowl.

    msmonipenni | 22 Oct '14, 12:28 | X
    • you also become conditioned to associate airfreshner

      with shit and piss

      • Yeah scented babywipes now just pavlov the shit out of my nostrils

        • there's a certain type of handcream, I forget the brand

          that on smell just reminds me of wanking as a teenager and instantly arouses me.

          Hi, how's it going?

          ma0sm @LaszloPanaflex | 22 Oct '14, 12:39 | X
    • lol at chocolate gateaux

      but don't want to think of this association ever again

    Do you know how far your shit spreads if you flush the loo and *don't* close the lid? Jesus.

    • Capt poo gas: "Time to spread out team, the job is done and the cheeks have been removed"

      Private poo gas: "captain"
      Capt poo gas: "what is it private?"
      Private poo gas: "We don't know what to do, they left the seat down"
      Capt poo gas: "Oh, well we'd better just stop existing then because that's what leaving the seat down does jfc"

    • we covered this in toilet studies

      foppyish @plasticniki | 22 Oct '14, 12:30 | X
  • People who leave the seat down are the same who call their parents home "home", love button flies

    & buy vinyls

    Past tense perverts who wet themselves when they think about the concept of NOW

    ma0sm | 22 Oct '14, 12:32 | X
  • Seat and lid should be down at all times when not in use,

    is that really that difficult? Really?

    • Really pisses me off when we have guests and they DON'T put the lid down.

      • I leave other people's toilets the way I find them

        THROUGH THE DOOR LOL
